Always Wear Clean Underwear

There was a cold man from Connecticut
whose hygiene showed he didn't know etiquette 
if he'd left me alone
he'd still have his own bone
That cold hearted blighter from Connecticut.

Concerning this man from Connecticut, did this poor fellow have his boner cut? This was not at all great. He deserved better fate. That was enough to get him in a rut. You give good advice in limerick form Debbie.
